As the music echoed repeatedly in his mind, Loran Hill couldn't help but begin to sing the song again. The melodious and ethereal voice and the starship on the seabed resonated together, like twins playing at the same time.
The faintly fluorescent starship gradually brightened in the sound of the music. The faint blue fluorescence flowed endlessly, leaping like musical notes, and spreading across the surface like ripples, as if slowly waking up from a deep sleep.
Finally, amid the resounding music, the small hole spun and spread apart, revealing a circular entrance gleaming with white and blue light.
Loran Hill's fingers lightly touched the entrance of the hole, and a comfortable and warm touch was transmitted from his fingertips. There was also clear liquid inside the starship.
She jumped lightly into the hole and entered the comfortable liquid-wrapped interior of the starship.
One after another, virtual light screens lit up inside the starship, like guards lined up to welcome the new master, waiting for his inspection.
"Welcome~ Another group of humans traveling on this path."
The same line of words appeared in various languages on the pale blue screen.
Then, the light curtain dissipated, and the clear liquid around it began to change color, and then it mimicked the real scene.
Here is a perspective of the starry sky from outside the Earth.
I don’t know how many years have passed, but this blue planet is still rotating in the solar system, and the star map on all sides is as familiar and intimate as I remember.
But the good times did not last long. Tiny spots of light began to appear on the surface of the planet. These were the flames caused by the war. In the late Twilight Age, the major factions began a life-and-death struggle.
But not all factions participated in it. Some of them were very foresighted and began to build ships to travel in space.
When the war was at its most intense, spacecraft were carried by rockets and flew into space.
The metal hollow fighter planes patrolling in the sky rushed to block the ships flying into the sky. Most of them were shot down, but a few of them passed the blockade and headed towards the lonely deep space.
These ships have a common name, 'Deep Sea Union'.
After gaining extraordinary powers, they did not want to rely on machines and AI to build a unified world like the "Mechanical Council", nor did they have the grand desire of the "Original Heart" to realize the kingdom of heaven on earth.
'Not all problems can be solved, and not all problems are worth solving.'
When the population is large enough, building a unified and harmonious social structure will become increasingly difficult.
People's thoughts are becoming more and more different, and their forms of existence are becoming more and more different.
In the end, the solutions given by the world are nothing more than physical unity (Mechanical Council) and spiritual unity (Original Heart).
This is undoubtedly successful and powerful, but it is undeniable that individuals who differ from the mainstream are not comfortable. They have to cater to the standards of the majority and distort their own individual inclinations and wishes.
"If being together only brings pain, it's better to keep our distance and go our separate ways."
The idea of 'Deep Sea Alliance' is like a lone whale lurking beneath the waves. They are unwilling to erase their own individuality and integrate into a unified collective, but they also recognize the strength that unity brings.
So they chose to leave.
After leaving the earth, these ships are like lonely whales entering the empty ocean, swimming freely in the silent deep sea starry sky.
This branch of humanity missed the most glorious era of the ancients. When the Mechanical Council's fleets spread across the galaxy with the help of the Moon Crown, they were as small and imperceptible as grains of sand in the ocean.
However, the glory of ancient humans did not last long. Although it shone brightly, it suddenly disappeared like a shooting star across the night sky.
After the catastrophe, tens of billions of lives perished in the Aegeka Sea, transforming into a lingering poison that roamed the world. Meanwhile, these ships of the Deep Sea Alliance were still hibernating in the starry sky, slowly sailing towards their destined star.
When they woke up, it was already a long, long time later.
During the long voyage through the starry sky, these lone whales slowly started from scratch, gradually improved their technology, and learned the experience of living in the starry sky.
They no longer settled on specific planets, as that would have invited the phantom of Chaos, but instead wandered around.
Hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of years passed slowly like this.
Even though they could not improve their skills and craftsmanship as exponentially as the Mechanical Council, they gradually surpassed the Mechanical Council after a long period of time.
At this time, the members of the 'Deep Sea Alliance' also had very different appearances from humans, and even their genetic sequences were different.
Living on the starship for years, they gradually transformed their bodies into mermaid-like forms for ease of living. Because they spend their entire lives on the starship, legs are no longer necessary, and instead, their tails are more comfortable in the cushioning and protective fluid.
Furthermore, humans in this form no longer need to eat, an inefficient way to obtain nutrients and energy. They can absorb nutrients directly from liquids through their skin or lungs, and then excrete useless waste through the pores of their skin like sweat.
If energy is needed, the body can absorb the electrical energy directly from the fluid as a supplement.
After living in space for tens of thousands of years, these lonely whales in the deep sea occasionally meet each other, and finally a small number of them begin to miss their hometown, their blue mother planet.
However, at this time, there was no trace of the Earth in the solar system, as if it had disappeared out of thin air.
The lone whales, having searched in vain, lost themselves and scattered, heading once again towards the distant deep space. Some of them have begun to consider leaving this poisonous galaxy and heading towards even more distant galaxies.
Only the leader of a starship still insisted on his own ideas, and the vague feeling in his dreams guided him in the direction.
